>From April 1, 2010 Russia will supply Armenia with natural gas at USD
180 per 1,000 cubic metres, Armenian Energy and Natural Resources
Minister Armen Movsisian has stated. Initially a price of USD 200
was being suggested but due to the efforts of Armenian side the price
was brought down.

Meanwhile Russia is offering to build Armenia a nuclear power station.

Russian state corporation Rostat has made this offer, suggesting it
build a facility like the one it constructed in Belen, Bulgaria. The
Armenian side denies the rumour that Russia has reduced the gas price
because a secret deal has been done to let it build the power station,
but we’ll see.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
